The document discusses mobile application testing, focusing on automation challenges across multiple platforms and presenting Sikuli as a potential solution. It highlights the difficulties in object-based testing due to platform variations and the lack of generic frameworks, while suggesting an image-based automation approach for GUI testing. Additionally, it introduces Sikuli, an open-source visual technology for automating GUI tasks using images, along with a demo for implementing tests across different devices.

- 5. Challenges in automation Different platforms involved in running a test No object handles available for Object Based Testing Test Automation Code : Test Machine (Windows) Application under test : Emulator (Virtual Box)
- 6. Challenges in automation Writing automated test in emulator/device. Need to have knowledge of the technology platform of each Device to write testing application within. No generic automation framework available for all mobile platforms or devices
- 7. Approach to solve the problem Image based test automation Automate user operations eg. Click, type, drag-drop, mouse actions etc. Visual verification of the expected output Not dependent on platform underneath Can be used to automate emulator as well as device.
- 8. Advantages of the approach Can accurately test GUI and rendering of applications. Write test outside the device Can be used to automate multiple devices without getting into details of each platform technology Easy to automate.
- 9. Limitations of the approach Highly depends on the Resolution. Can not run in background. Dynamic paths are tricky to automate.

Editor's Notes
- #5: Emulator: Is available before release of mobile device. Good for frequent and early testing. Device: Exact performance can be measured. Need to test hardware support for all operations.
- #10: Dynamic Path: Calender appointment gets highlighted with red color. You need to get date when the appointment is there and email it.
